Kirkstall Abbey

As the weather was quite nice yesterday we decided you go for a wander around Kirkstall Abbey. We drive past the Abbey quite a bit when we go into Leeds city centre, however yesterday was the first time that I had actually been for a walk around it! It is a ruined Cistercian monastery and was founded in 1152! The ruins themselves are entrenched in history and gothic mysticism and are extremely beautiful.








We had a lovely afternoon exploring and I would definitely recommend visiting if you are in the Leeds area :)
